Easy weight loss! Breastfeeding burns extra calories, 200-500 a day. Let other women sweat it out at the gym, all you need to do is cuddle up with your baby.

Breastfeeding is free! And on top of that you’re  saving on bottles, teats, liners and the like, all of which you have to buy and then keep clean

Breast milk is always there. No mixing formula or waiting for it to heat up while baby screams inconsolably. No worries about running out in the middle of the night or not having enough with you when you are out and about.

Breastfeeding is a natural form of birth control.

The release of the hormone Oxytocin while breastfeeding promotes feelings of calm, well-being, and love for your baby.

Breastfeeding is good for your health. Breastfeeding helps the uterus return to normal size faster and prevents hemorrhaging. Women who breastfeed have fewer incidences of osteoporosis and some kinds of cancers including breast and ovarian cancer.
